PUTRAJAYA: Malaysia has recalled its ambassador to North Korea as Wisma Putra summoned Pyongyang's ambassador to Malaysia following his strong criticism against the Government.

In a strongly worded statement, Wisma Putra said it viewed the baseless allegations levelled by the North Korean Ambassador Kang Chol as a serious attempt to tarnish the country's reputation.
